I needed these books when I was a young girl! But the fact that I'm an adult can't keep me from reading these books. I've never seen an Amelia book that I wouldn't give five stars.
I recently bought this book as a Christmas present for a girl. I also purchased a blank b/w composition notebook and a packet of pens to put with it. Moss's illustrations are hilarious and thoughtful as usual. One set of pages I especially liked was a list of sounds that Amelia tries to explain to the deaf friend she has made (ie. a cat purring is like a sweater right out of the dryer). Very cute.
